With the national economic development, the developed countries mostly introduced foreign labors from the less developed countries in order to reduce the cost of labors. However, with the introduction of a large number of foreign labors, the differences in policies, management, culture, work habits, and lifestyles have resulted in the escape of foreign labors. As the escape of foreign labors has caused serious social problems, how to eliminate the escape of foreign labors has become an important issue. This study was conducted in Taiwan Kaohsiung's Nanzih Export Processing Zone and sampled 268 Philippine labors as respondents. It utilised quantitative method to investigate if the practices for preventing foreign labors run away can enhance the continuance commitment. This research also employed respondents' locus of control as a moderator to predict the effects of the practices for preventing foreign labors run away. The findings of this study are positive that the practices for preventing foreign labors run away can enhance the continuance commitment. Particularly, the practices which are outside the environment of the enterprise have significant impacts. However, there was no significant moderating effect of the respondents' locus of control on the practices for preventing foreign labors run away and the continuance commitance. The study's findings have critical implications for the enterprises, the government, and academic research in improving the problems of foreign labors' run away. |
